--- Comment #1 from Gou LF <goughostt at gmail.com> ---
I'm experiencing this too.

KMail relies on ``UIDNEXT'' to do incremental syncing.
But some mail servers don't provide this. In such a case,
KMail fails to sync incrementally and takes a long time fetching
everything.

The standard <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501> says:
  'The STATUS command MUST NOT be used as a "check for new
  messages in the selected mailbox" operation'
KMail needs other mechanisms of incremental syncing.

It seems that few people are using KMail, and this bug won't get
fixed soon.
